Server tool list (5)
Raw names from tools/list. Only developers need these.
| search_servers | Search the MCP server directory by keyword and/or filters. Keyword matches name, description, and GitHub topics. Returns active servers sorted by relevance then stars. Supply at least one of query, category, or topic — with no query, filters alone enumerate a whole category or topic by stars. Data refreshes nightly from the public GitHub API. Any install_hint is a best-effort guess from the repository language, not a verified command: relay the install_hint_caveat with it rather than presenting it as ready to run. |
| get_server | Get the full directory entry for one MCP server by id ('owner--repo', e.g. 'microsoft--playwright-mcp'). Includes install hint, license, stars, category, and editorial fields. Any install_hint is a best-effort guess from the repository language, not a verified command: relay the install_hint_caveat with it rather than presenting it as ready to run. |
| list_categories | List all directory categories with slugs, names, and active-server counts. |
| list_topics | List the curated GitHub topics that have a directory page, with active-server counts. Topics are assigned by repository owners and imported verbatim, so the full dataset carries thousands of them; this returns only the curated subset. search_servers accepts any topic string, curated or not. |
| get_dataset_info | Dataset metadata: entry counts, generation timestamp, source, and licensing terms for bulk or training use. |
